Enjoy the water aerobics classes at 1pm on Tues. and Thurs. The instructor is great!!
Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of facilities
I can enjoy the Y and workout while my child is being watched. I like the family swim. I also like that I am able to register the kids up for sports.
My Y experience is wonderful, because the people who work there are extremely knowledgeable and kind. And the emphasis is on kind. I don’t know who taught them how to be so kind, but I think it starts with the management team and flows from them.
Love, love, love being in the middle of the woods with huge picture windows. Always find a spot even busy times. People, both staff and members, are kind and generous. Also love the chair yoga when I can get there. The place is always clean and welcoming, and so obviously attentive to community needs. Cheers all around❣️
The facility is clean and well maintained. The staff and patrons are dressed appropriately and following rules. My last gym was not this nice and I am so happy with the YMCA experience so far.
Variety of equipment, programs, friendly and educated staff, friendly patrons.

The instructor was very patient and effective. Perfect person to work with the younger children
The Catonsville Y is spotless and meets the fitness needs of many people. The pool lanes are wide enough to accommodate 2 people without bumping. The staff is friendly and always ready to answer any questions. The coffee station is a bonus.

We love the water aerobics classes offered at the Y in Catonsville.
Laura and Robin are simply the best
Tanelle at the Catonsville Y helped us resolve a payment issue that we had been trying to tackle for weeks. She solved the issue in five minutes and explained all the details to us clearly and patiently. We’re grateful that our Y has excellent staffers like T who are so willing to help members. Thank you, T!
We loved Miss Elena! She was well prepared to teach the course, kind and engaging with our kids, and provided helpful feedback for continued learning. The one downside was that it felt like a lot of time got used up with kids who were rowdy/not sitting in their seats, so I wonder if having a teaching assistant would be a helpful way to allow the main instructor focus on each kid individually for exercises, while the assistant could ensure that the other kids are waiting their turns safely. But overall, we loved this course and look forward to more at the Y.
I always feel welcome, good clean facility and people
Great swim class loved the intensive nature of combining down to one week . Just wish we had had the opportunity to make up the two classes missed due to storms but the weather did not cooperate. I think with two more classes we would have seen great improvements. Also for busy families it's actually a lot easier to compress into a week of the summer and just have one busy week than I we time. Would love to have more one week classes in the future.
Our overall experience with the Y has been positive. The swim program has provided my son with a structured and supportive environment to build his confidence and water-safety skills at his own pace. I appreciate the variety of programs offered and would recommend the Y to families looking for activities that promote learning, physical activity, and personal growth.
It makes me good.
Employees are very professional and welcoming at the door. Not only is it a cool gym with great tools to get fit, it's also' a place of peace.
Variety and timing of exercise classes
Clean. Great variety of workout options and machines, a pool, very light and bright!
nice experience
Tish’s Zumba Gold class was excellent. And she’s a bright happy presence to be around. Very kindly welcomed me. What a lovely lady. And a great instructor. Nice to see someone smile like she does.
Nice folks and environment.
I do wish there were a few signs to tell people to not rest/scroll on their phones while on the weight equipment. Some people do that really long, hogging the equipment
